Some such to bee, some such to seeme, them payne.

81.

Marke God’s iust iudgements, punishing sinne by sinn,

And slipperie state wherein aloft we swimme:

The prouerbe, al day vp if we ne fall,

Agreeth wel to vs hie heaued worldlinges al:

From common sort vpraisde[1462] in honour’s weede

We shine, while fortune false, whom none erst feede,

To stand with staye and forsweare ticklenesse,

Sowseth vs in myre of durtie brittlenesse.
